Agrarians and Sentient consumption?

[Lothmar]

Ok I had a good chuckle when I remembered that Agrarian existed after watching pops getting purged through consumption.

So my question is; if a civilization has 'Agrarian' does that apply to the eater, the eaten, or both?

ex: If The consuming empire has Agrarian, do they get +15% food from food purging sentients? Or do Agrarian civilizations give a +15% to the food they create because they have lots of available grains etc for serving them on things like buns, pizza dough, pasta, tortillas, basically anything with carbs when being consumed by another empire. *chuckle*

Or instead of a standard 15% bonus, is an agrarians society that is eaten considered 'delicious' because they've been fattened/sweetened up after being raised on grains etc and grants that 'delicious' 200% modifier?

Empires cannot have the Agrarian modifier, agrarian only applies to a particular species, and since two members of a species cannot work the same tile, then even if your founding species is agrarian, it will not provide them with extra food when purging, however if the species you are purging is agrarian, then yes, they should provide a 15% bonus to food produced while they are being processed. Delicious I believe is a pop modifier, but it is clearly not the same pop modifier as Agrarian, so I would be lead to believe that delicious is its own separate species trait, like agrarian but backwards. Delicious only increases the amount of food a pop provides while being processed, so it is likely a negative trait which can be chosen to give you more trait points in the species creation screen.

I imagine Delicious being about -1 Trait points and that if your primary species does have that trait, you might want to be careful not to get conquered by a Xenophobic Empire because you could provide them with a substantial boost to food production.
